Prevent automatic HTTP redirects
Apparently, at some point this feature was removed from Firefox. The option "Advanced -> General -> Warn me when websites try to redirect" doesn't seem to work. For example, this link redirects automatically: http://bit.ly/M4DEDa
I think that automatic HTTP redirects are a potential attack vector. (See, for example, [1]). Can the option to disable them be restored?
